"I Walked in Arden" by Jack Randall Crawford is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative follows Edward Jevons, an Englishman who has grown up in London and is unexpectedly thrust into an American business venture by his father. As he navigates life in Deep Harbor, a manufacturing town, he grapples with his aspirations of writing, familial obligations, and the contrasting realities of his new environment. At the start of the story, Jevons reflects on his childhood and the complexities of beginnings. As he prepares to travel to America with his father, he expresses trepidation about a future he feels ill-equipped to face. His unease deepens when he is offered a significant role in a new venture at the Deep Harbor Manufacturing Company, despite his desire to pursue writing. The opening portion introduces his character development and underscores the themes of identity, ambition, and the clash between personal dreams and familial expectations, setting the stage for the conflicts he will encounter in his new life.
